. Prague, August 16, 2006 . Present classification : Suggested: SR, SRA, SRB, SRC, SRS SR (the regularity level should be indicated by the presentation of the light elements; if a star is a supergiant, it will be obvious from its spectral type) SRD SRd (we feel not inclined to introduce the UU Her type) ZZ, ZZA, ZZB, ZZO ZZ (subtype is contained in the spectral type) . BLBOO BLBoo . GDOR GDor . PULSATING VARIABLES (CONTINUED)

The GSFC acousto-optic tunable filter (AOTF) camera was used at the Apache Point Observatory 3.5 meter telescope in Sunspot, NM, to image the night side of Venus. In the near-infrared, there are several spectral regions that are relatively clear in the Venus atmosphere. ... By imaging the Venus night side, an AOTF camera can determine spatial variations of trace molecular species in the Venusian atmosphere, and even study the dynamics of the zonal winds on Venus. ...
